Little Mixcancelled the US leg of their “Salute” tour. The official reason for the cancellation is: 3rd album. Not surprisingly, SYCO wants a new album before Christmas. The girls talked about the third album a few weeks ago and I got the impression that 3rd album this year wasn’t very likely due to their busy schedule. I’m relived to hear the girls now have lots of time.

One Direction‘s 4th album is coming before Christmas. Obviously.

Olly Murs also has his 4th album ready for November release. Read more: Daily Star

EXCLUSIVE: X Factor judges go to war in TV ratings pushX FACTOR bosses are plotting to make this year’s series an all-out war between the judges.
A promo advert for the ITV show with a brutal army theme has been commissioned.

The big-budget campaign will see judges Cheryl Cole, Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and Mel B pitted against each other. Producers are convinced having the panel at war will make great telly and keep viewers hooked.

A show insider said: “Bosses want the judges to be at each other’s throats. They know that’s what viewers want.”

I study law at the Faculty of Law in Ljubljana, Slovenia. In my free time I like to read books, watch TV and listen to music. I'm also a huge cat lover and I own 5 cats and a dog.I cover X Factor UK for MJsBigBlog.com.

Strange, if Cheryl Cole thought Simon was right to fire her why did she sue for the rest of her money seems unfair. Also I would catch glimpses where people would call Simon a jerk and such for firing Cheryl and it seems he was right, Simon must be going SEE.

Glad she’s doing better mentally though.
